I didn't start writing poetry until 2023. I had written a few songs and I guess that's how I got started. I've always wanted to be a writer... because I enjoy reading so much. I consume at least one book per week. That and studying the Bible are my favorite pass times. I was ordained as a Non-denominational Christian minister in 2020.

I also play the ukulele a little, sing a little, love crafting, sewing, cooking, and any kind of art. I've been in childcare and early education for 30 years and have 2 of my own. My husband, Harvey, and I are blessed with a daughter, Rosie, now 18 years old! And our son, Hunter, who lives in Heaven.

Self Esteem Odes contest note

Blog Posted by Crystol Woods: 5/25/2025 10:37:00 AM

You may notice that several of the contest entries and winners used a name, or their own name, in the poem's title. The PS rule about not including ones name is to ensure the contest sponsor isn't showing favoritism to those poets they know, and that the contest remains anonymous. I would like to reassure you all that this contest did remain anonymous even so. I did not know the poets by whatever name was included in their title or i would have disqualified the poem. The integrity of the judging process is still intact.

That said, Congratulations to the winners and to all who entered, a big thank you for sharing your poems with me! Xoxo, CW
